Content

3 Axis Bar Chart

Program

A 3D bar chart with solid bars, isometric projection, and a painter's-algorithm draw order renders a cosine-based mathematical surface in vivid color.

Bank Reconciliation

Program

A two-mode checkbook reconciliation program prints formatted ledger columns on screen and paper simultaneously, using integer penny arithmetic to sidestep floating-point rounding errors.

BigChar

Program

A compact machine code utility that prints the text in a REM statement as large text.

Bold

Program

A compact 29-byte machine code routine patches the system to deliver bold text output, loaded and launched by a minimal BASIC bootstrap program.

Char Design

Program

Draw an 8×8 character pixel-by-pixel, then watch the program calculate the exact decimal byte values and redefine a custom graphic automatically.

Clock

Program

A fully animated analog clock face with trigonometrically placed hour markers, sweeping hands, and an audible tick rendered entirely in BASIC.

Confusion

Program

This clever BASIC utility lets you replace the displayed text of numeric literals in any program while leaving their true floating-point values completely intact.

Curve

Program

An interactive Bézier curve designer lets you place up to 20 control points and watch the mathematically computed smooth curve plotted on screen.

Curve 2

Program

Enter a set of control points and watch this program compute and plot a smooth Bézier curve, with an optional wireframe overlay showing the control polygon.

Geography Quiz

Program

A hand-drawn color map of North America sets the scene for a state-capitals quiz that reads your answer and tells you where you went wrong.

Olympiad

Program

A faithful recreation of the Olympic fanfare complete with five-ring graphics and a custom animated character that tracks each note as the melody plays.

OSC-10C

Program

Track the OSCAR 10 amateur satellite in real time with this BASIC orbital propagator that plots world maps, computes azimuth and elevation, and displays phase and range data.

Spanish Tutor

Program

An interactive Spanish tutor automatically conjugates any regular verb you enter and teaches suffixes, opposites, and question words with scrolling example sentences.

Tag

Program

Can you catch a randomly wandering target using just four keys before it slips away again in this quick block-graphics chase game?

Varslist

Program

A 173-byte machine code utility reveals every BASIC variable currently in memory — just call it with RANDOMIZE USR to inspect your program's state.

Video Tape File

Program

A video tape catalog manager stores up to 100 titles with searchable subject and tape-number fields, complete with a Shell sort and tape-based data persistence.

Weekly Taping Schedule

Program

Enter your weekly recording schedule day by day and print a neatly formatted timetable complete with channel numbers and program names.

Note: Type-in program listings on this website use ZMAKEBAS notation for graphics characters.
